Reviewing The Westbrook Trade

[The Q]

Yep. If you compare dragic numbers from the last 2 years to lowry you would think he was the better option but then you watch the Heat play and you see the drastic difference

Different roles obviously. And now more talent around him with Herro and bam developing

Plus they need him to focus on d more

One guy is a pg and one guy isn't

 

[The Q]

One guy is a pg and one guy isn't

I mean, I think he’s a pg. but yeah he’s in that combo mode

But his role was more scoring than lowrys is for sure.

 

[shopson67]

Looking at lowry stats is as silly as looking at cp3 stats. These guys are pass first pgs and their impact on winning goes pass the box score

Comparing Lowry to CP3 is sillier.

 

[shopson67]

Was he out for the entire playoffs?

I didn’t think that was the case

He was out part way through the first round, which the Lakers lost to the Suns. Lakers were leading the series prior to AD's injury.

Not really. Are they both not first pass pgs? But yeah let's compare lowry to a stat padder pg instead

Yeah I’m asking if he would’ve been out following rounds as well. I thought if the lakers advanced he had a chance to play but I could be misremembering

I'm a little foggy on it too. But if memory serves, had they gotten past the Suns, he may have been able to return at some point in the 2nd round. I'm not 100% sure, but I think that was the case.

I didn't compare Lowry to anyone, just his stats vs his salary.
